How Strong is Communist China? (1955)
About this film
This program includes a film segment consisting of excerpts from an official propaganda film taken in 1950 by a Soviet camera crew. The ultimate strength of Red China depends not only on improving the standard of living, but also on giving the peasant incentive to keep on producing. Red leaders have not kept their promises as it appeared at first. In spite of economic difficulties, Red China is both strong and dangerous. Internal revolt is unlikely.
